I really liked the look of this matte black faucet for my bathroom renovation. It looks perfect in the space and I like the easy to turn knobs- you do not have to grip it with multiple fingers to turn on and off which is nice. I’ve had it for about 2 years and the black paint (is it paint) is starting to flake off the handles down toward the base. I am not sure if this is standard in black matte faucetsknobs, but it does not seem like it should be. So now I am just waiting for more of the black to flake off before it is an eyesore and needs to be replaced.
